2015 Spring Training - Trimble Certified Classes

Transcription

1 2015 Spring Training - Trimble Certified Classes We are excited to offer Trimble certified training classes in multiple locations this spring. All classes are at least 70% hands-on and highly recommended for new users or those looking to refresh their skills prior to the field season. We will host 2-day Trimble TerraSync and Pathfinder Office and 3-day ArcPad with Trimble Positions training classes. These comprehensive classes will cover all aspects of a data collection project as well as covering GNSS fundamentals, high accuracy data collection and best practices for field or office improving the quality and efficiency of your data collection and update. New this year, we will be offering a 1-day Intro to ArcGIS Online and Esri Collector class and a 2-day ArcGIS for Windows Mobile with Trimble Positions extension class. Please look at the following class descriptions and available dates and send in the registration for the class of your choice. Early registration is appreciated, and note that you will not be charged until the start of class unless otherwise requested. If you have four or more people who need training and would rather have a class held on-site, please contact me. We have training laptops and receivers and would be happy to hold a class that will best meet your needs. Customized lesson plans are available.

2 This 3-day course focuses on data collection with Esri ArcPad software, while providing in-depth training using the Trimble Positions Software Suite to prepare and process ArcPad data. Designed to convey the end-to-end understanding of collecting and managing high-quality ArcPad data, this class is valuable for the field user as well as the GIS administrator or data manager. All aspects of a data collection project with ArcPad, including designing a geodatabase, configuring ArcPad and Trimble Positions for ArcPad, field data collection, and processing data with Trimble Positions Desktop. This class is indispensable to anyone seeking to leverage the strengths of Esri and Trimble systems into a cohesive mapping system. Course topics include, but are not limited to: GPS fundamentals GIS fundamentals 7 Steps of a successful project Designing a geodatabase Creating fields to store metadata Specifying the required accuracy for features Creating Projects in Trimble Positions Configuring ArcPad Downloading data Trimble Processing - Differentially Correcting GPS Sessions - Analyzing GPS Positions on the Map - Validating Features GPS Navigation with ArcPad Updating existing data using ArcPad Advanced data collection including offsets with laser rangefinder Collecting Data with ArcPad About The Instructors: Jim Lahm has been in the GPS industry for 22 years. In 1994 he became a Trimble Pathfinder Certified Trainer. In early 1995, he started GPS education Resource, a company dedicated to GPS training and teaching the finer points of GPS. In August 2001, Jim joined Electronic Data Solutions. He became a Trimble Certified Trainer for TerraSync and ArcPad in 2005 and now sells Trimble GPS Mapping Systems, while providing certified training around the country. Alison Walker graduated from Montana State University-Bozeman with a degree in Geography in 2006 and has worked with Electronic Data Solutions since that time doing sales and technical support on Esri, Trimble, Juniper, LaserTech and Ricoh hardware and software. She has been a Trimble Certified Trainer since 2010 and has developed two new ArcPad training classes as well as implemented alternate training online. She currently works as the GPS/GIS Technical Services Manager overseeing technical support, repair service and training.

3 All aspects of a data collection project with GPS Pathfinder Office software and TerraSync Professional Field Software will be covered, including planning a project, creating a data dictionary, working with background files, collecting data in the field, GPS navigation, differential correction, and export to GIS or Google Earth. All Trimble mapping systems are welcome. Whether you are learning to use your Trimble Mapping system for the first time, or learning to use what you have more efficiently, you will find this class well worth your time. Course Outline: GPS fundamentals and accuracy expectations Planning a mapping project Creating a data dictionary Trimble Mapping system setup and TerraSync software configuration Collecting data with TerraSync Professional Best practices for highest accuracy Transferring data files Differential correction using GPS Pathfinder Office Editing data in GPS Pathfinder Office Exporting data to ArcMap or Google Earth Transferring background files to TerraSync GPS Navigation with TerraSync Updating existing data with TerraSync About The Instructors: Jim Lahm has been in the GPS industry for 22 years.

4 This one-day intro to ArcGIS Online will include multiple hands-on exercises designed to illustrate the variety of functionality available to publish and share spatial information through web maps and applications. A field exercise using the Esri Collector app will also be included. Whether you are considering implementing ArcGIS Online for your organization or are actively using this tool already, you will find the best practices and variety of exercises presented valuable to your organization and application. This will also be a great follow-up to any of our other classes to take the data you ve collected to the next level. Course Outline: ArcGIS Online intro, configuration and best practices Hands on exercises adding content to ArcGIS Online Creating and sharing web maps Using ArcGIS Online Templates to create web applications Using the Esri Collector app for field data collection and update Managing layers and web maps Using ArcGIS Online groups to populate your homepage or custom galleries Intro to techniques to manage and use large datasets About The Instructor: Alison Walker graduated from Montana State University-Bozeman with a degree in Geography in 2006 and has worked with Electronic Data Solutions since that time doing sales and technical support on Esri, Trimble, Juniper, LaserTech and Ricoh hardware and software.
